Circuit City had that ad last year around the holidays, too, featuring Robert Downey, Jr.'s recording of River. Someone licensed it to Circuit City not the U.S. military. Circuit City is just giving people who want to send video messages to their friends and family in the service a little free assistance in doing so. > n.p.
